Hi, I'm Ayshah with your Newsround update. Coming up: | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The cute baby gorilla getting used to her surroundings. | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
And we weigh up the Wimbledon men's semi-finalists! | :00:12. | :00:22. | |
All this week we've been examining the results of a special Newsround | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
survey into aspirations - our hopes and dreams | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
for the future - and now I've turned my attention to Hollywood. | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
At this year's Oscars ceremony, one of the big talking points was | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
British film director Steve McQueen winning a major award. | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
He's the first director from a black background to pick up | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
But he's told us he had a hard time at school, and that | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
A survey for Newsround looking at your aspirations for the future | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
suggests that black and Asian children were least likely to say | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
that their teachers would describe them as clever or ambitious. | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
I've been to meet Steve in London to find out more. | :00:55. | :01:10. | |
Hollywood, home of the biggest movies, | :01:11. | :01:11. | |
the brightest and most talented stars, and it hosts some of the | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
British film director Steve McQueen is one of the most popular people | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
Earlier this year he won an Oscar, one of the most important film | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
And it's the first time that someone from a black background has won | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
But when Steve was at school in the UK, | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
There was this situation where black children were not deemed | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
as intelligent or deemed to be able to go on to do anything | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
And it was because of people who believed in me, like my mother and | :01:40. | :01:48. | |
my father, and it was a situation where I was very determined. | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
In our Newsround survey, black and Asian children were less likely | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
than white children to feel like their teachers would describe | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
Steve went to school in the 1970s and thinks that not | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
The circle has to be broken, it's upsetting to think that it?s not. | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
I'm sitting here with you now and I left school nearly 30 years ago | :02:14. | :02:26. | |
and it's still the same rubbish that goes on. | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
So what does he think needs to be done to make children from | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
an ethnic-minority background feel they can succeed in this country? | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
It's about that belief, filling people's lungs with ambition | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
When you narrow people's possibilities then they become | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
narrow, when you open their possibilities they become open, and | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
give them the idea that things are possible, because it's the truth. | :02:51. | :02:57. | |
Steve is working on a new project with American President Barack Obama | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
aimed at helping disadvantaged children do better in school. | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
And it's Steve's dream to bring the project here to the UK and give | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
children the support that they need to have the job of their dreams. | :03:08. | :03:32. | |
